The aim is to help you to understand the cause of your discomfort, and to learn coping strategies to help manage your pain, and to improve functional movements.
This is a national programme, and it is constantly audited to make sure the service is bringing the best care, both locally and nationally.

Each session is based on an education/advice section and an exercise section, in total lasting one hour.
